Kimi to star in Top Gear season finale

Kimi will be the ‘Star in a Reasonably Priced Car’ on the series finale of hit UK motoring show Top Gear.

Next week, Kimi Räikkönen will be the latest to add his name to that prestigious list

A host of racing stars from both past and present, including Sebastian Vettel, Rubens Barrichello, Nigel Mansell, Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Damon Hill, Mark Webber and of course the infamous ‘Stig’ have tested their skills around the Top Gear test track. Next week, Kimi Räikkönen will be the latest to add his name to that prestigious list.

Taking to the circuit, which is based on the main runway and taxiways of Dunsfield Aerodrome in South East England, Kimi will have to negotiate the legendary Hammerhead, Followthrough and Gambon bends as he aims to etch his name into the Top Gear history books.

And of course, the Iceman will come face to face with one of the most recognised figures in British television – the one and only Jeremy Clarkson.

The show, which is the last of the current series, will be shown on BBC TWO – Sunday 11th March, 20:00-21:00 (UK time).
